Why Did I Read? I love fairy tale retellings. Every time that’s in a blurb, I’m like I need it! My Thoughts: I really loved the first half of this book! This Snow White retelling was super original and had some really fascinating aspects and twists on the classic Snow White fairytale. That’s my favorite part about retellings — seeing the unique twists that authors come up with and how they fit into this brand new story and still seeing […]

Why Did I Read? The great outdoors! Hiking! It’s my thing! Plus I loved Jenn Bennett’s YA contemporary last year too! My Thoughts: I could not have picked a more perfect time to read Starry Eyes. I was on a multi day backpacking hiking trip in New Zealand when I read it! I was literally out in the forest and the great outdoors as I read about Zorie and Lennon hacking it out there. Firstly, a little bit of background: I […]

I love that in the Hundred Oaks books, you’ll see […]

My Thoughts: I love the Heartbreaker series! I was so happy to dive into Kylie and Joe’s story! We have seen the two in the previous books and now we get to learn more about their individual back stories. Kylie is this old soul, who was raised by her grandfather, and is an amazing wood worker! I loved her- she’s independent and sassy and doesn’t take crap from anyone. She’s someone that Joe can’t get out of his head but […]

Review: A Poison Dark and Drowning by Jessica Cluess

Posted February 5, 2018 by Wendy in Reviews / 0 Comments

Why Did I Read? I really enjoyed the first book in the series, A Shadow Bright and Burning and have been eager to see what is going to happen next! My Thoughts: So one of the main things that I really love about this series is the backdrop of Victorian England– but with magic! Magicians and sorcerers and monsters and hints of other worlds out there. It appeals to my love of all things fantasy combined with historical fiction plus Victorian England […]
